It is already installed.

How do I do that?
On the other machine that I don't have access right now (which
happens to be a laptop), there is a NetworkManager icon in the upper
right corner, on the menu bar. Plus, there is a menu item to start or
setup PPTP (I think it was under Applications - Internet). None of
these are on this machine.
When I open a root shell and type "nm-applet", I get:
** (nm-applet:8905): WARNING **: <WARN> bus_init(): Could not get the
session bus. Make sure the message bus daemon is running! Message:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote
application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy
blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network
connection was broken.
**
GLib-GIO:ERROR:gdbusconnection.c:2270:initable_init: assertion failed:
(connection->initialization_error == NULL)
I actually had a similar message all the time with SUSE-Linux, which
was the reason I installed Fedora. I thought the D-Bus was a KDE thing
I would not see with Gnome.
Take care
Oliver
